yep. Compared to the 70's or 80's, its disgusting.


I'm near retirement. I grew up in Bossier but have lived in DFW the last 40 years or so. I spoke with a Shreveport fireman recently and his direct quote (which hit home) was "Don't retire here. This aint the same place you grew up in". If it were, I would probably come back "home"!

Which is kinda sad, because Shreveport was a retirement haven a few decades ago. The Base had a lot to do with that too.

I go back every few years and its always even more disappointing. I was one of Shreveports biggest cheerleaders in the 80's.
